Post by Binder DundatReal Mard will be real Mad if he sees the hand ball call that gives YB
the 3rd goal penal.
Werner should be happy though.
Lol I’m still fuming.
The TNT Sports commentator (English) was very critical too, as he summed
it up, Bardakci’s hand was in a natural position for a player doing a
sliding challenge. Ball bounced off the calm onto the arm, don’t see how
that’s a penalty.
I notice Okan Buruk has made reference to the ref being German
potentially having a bearing too. There were similar comments in the
Turkish media when Urs Meier gave decisions thought to be unfavourable
to Galatasaray in their Champions League game with Hertha Berlin 25
years ago (where did the time go??). I don’t think that should be a
problem myself, but I don’t see why UEFA risks such criticism when they
could have surely just appointed a ref from a non German speaking
country?
